Personal Information. Personal information means information that specifically identifies an individual (such as a name, full mailing address, telephone number, mobile number, e-mail address, or credit card number). Personal information does not include “aggregate” or anonymized information, e.g., data we collect about the use of the Site or about a group or category of services or users, from which personal information that specifically identifies you has been removed. This Policy in no way restricts or limits our collection, use or disclosure of aggregate or anonymized information.

We may use and disclose behavioral information for any purpose.

Third Party Log-in Credentials. In order to use certain services on our Site, we may request your login credentials to third party websites.

(c) when we believe in good faith that we are lawfully authorized or required to do so or that doing so is reasonably necessary or appropriate to: (a) comply with the law or legal processes or respond to lawful requests or legal authorities, including responding to lawful subpoenas, warrants, or court orders; or (b) protect the rights, property, or safety of StartWire, our users, our employees, copyright owners, third parties or the public, including without limitation to protect StartWire or our users from fraudulent, abusive, inappropriate, or unlawful use of our Site;

You understand that if you use such features or otherwise post any content through the Site, the information you post will be available to other users and other websites, and in some cases may be publicly available. We recommend you be cautious about giving out personal information to others or sharing personal information through the Site.

We are not responsible for the actions of Service Providers or other third parties, nor are we responsible for any additional information you provide directly to any third parties, and we encourage you to become familiar with their privacy practices before disclosing information directly to any such parties.

How Will You Handle My Resume?

If you submit your resume to the Site, then all parties with access to our searchable resume database (or copies thereof) will have access to your resume. Employers or other parties with access to our searchable resume database may be located in countries whose data protection legislation may not be equivalent to the laws in your country. For example, your resume may be viewed and accessed by employers outside the European Economic Area who have access to our searchable database. By making your resume searchable, you are expressly consenting to such transfers of data.

We attempt to limit access to our searchable resume database to legitimate users such as bona fide employers, recruiters, hiring managers, headhunters and human resource professionals, as well as law enforcement and national security agencies, but we cannot guarantee that other parties will not gain access to this database. We cannot control the use made of resumes by third parties who access such resumes while they are in our searchable database. Even if we offer functionality that allows you to remove your resume, employers, recruiters and others who have paid for access to that database, as well as parties who have otherwise gained access to the database may have retained a copy of your resume in their own files or databases. We cannot control the retention, use or privacy of resumes or profiles that have been downloaded by third parties. Accordingly, you should not put sensitive information, personality profiles, or other information you would not want made public, in your resume.

We will use personal information within your resume in accordance with this Policy, however, we may use demographic, aggregate and behavioral information for any purpose.

Links to Other Websites

Our Site may contain links to websites operated by third parties. Any personal information you provide on or through the linked pages is provided directly to that third party and is subject to that third party’s privacy policy. This Policy does not apply to such linked websites, and we are not responsible for the content or privacy and security practices and policies of these websites or any other websites operated by third parties that are linked to from the Site. We encourage you to learn about their privacy and security practices and policies before providing them with personal information.

What Steps Do We Take To Protect Your Information Online?

We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information in an effort to prevent loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction. Please be aware, however, that despite our efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable and no method of data transmission that can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse. To protect the confidentiality of your personal information, you should keep your password confidential and not disclose it to any other person. You are solely responsible for all use of the Site and our services by any person using your password.

What Choices Do You Have Regarding the Use of Your Information?

You may “opt out” of receiving marketing or promotional emails from us by following the instructions in those emails. If you opt out, we may still send you non-promotional emails, such as emails about your accounts or our ongoing business relations.

Your California Rights

A California resident who has provided personal information to a business with whom he/she has established a business relationship for personal, family, or household purposes (“California customer”) is entitled to request information about whether the business has disclosed personal information to any third parties for the third parties’ direct marketing purposes. In general, if the business has made such a disclosure of personal information, upon receipt of a request by a California customer, the business is required to provide a list of all third parties to whom personal information was disclosed in the preceding calendar year, as well as a list of the categories of personal information that were disclosed.

However, under the law, a business is not required to provide the above-described lists if the business adopts and discloses to the public (in its privacy policy) a policy of not disclosing customer’s personal information to third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless the customer first affirmatively agrees to the disclosure, as long as the business maintains and discloses this policy. Rather, the business may comply with the law by notifying the customer of his or her right to prevent disclosure of personal information and providing a cost free means to exercise that right.

We do not share personal information with third parties for their direct marketing purposes unless you affirmatively agree to such disclosure. To prevent disclosure of your personal information for use in direct marketing by a third party, do not opt in to such use when you provide personally identifiable information on our Site. Please note that whenever you opt in to receive future communications from a third party, your information will be subject to the third party’s privacy policy. If you later decide that you do not want that third party to use your information, you will need to contact the third party directly, as we have no control over how third parties use information. You should always review the privacy policy of any party that collects your information to determine how that entity will handle your information.

California customers may request further information about our compliance with this law by e-mailing privacy@startdatelabs.com . Please note that we are only required to respond to one request per customer each year, and we are not required to respond to requests made by means other than through this e-mail address.

Children Under Age 13

The Site is not intended for children under age 13. No one under age 13 may provide any information to or on the Site. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under age 13; nor do we allow such persons to use the Site or our services. If we learn we have collected or received personal information from a child under age 13 without verification of parental consent, we will delete that information. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under age 13, please contact us at privacy@startdatelabs.com .
